The project
As part of the call for projects launched by ADEME, the Grand Port Maritime de La Rochelle (GPMLR) has joined forces with four other ports on the Atlantic seaboard (Bordeaux, Rochefort, Bayonne) to support the Aquitania Wind Energy project. The aim is to adapt port infrastructures to the massive development of offshore wind energy, both bottom-fixed and floating.
The port wants to be prepared to receive, assemble, store and ship hundreds of new-generation wind turbines (up to 25 MW), within tight deadlines, while taking into account multiple technical, environmental and scheduling scenarios.
Thanks to our systemic vision and strong coordination between the entities of the setec Group, we have helped to structure a solid operational roadmap. This ambitious project positions the Port of La Rochelle as a key link in the French wind energy industry.
